 Halfpint, check out the "classifieds" on our own website:  The Grey Nomads.  I would include the link, but for some reason tonight, I cannot get onto the main site.

There are listings there for grey nomads who are available for house sitting. 

Edit:  link sorted now, here is the link:  http://thegreynomads.com.au/classifieds/

 jetj the idea with the house sitter is just to look after your property no money exchanges hands. The house sitter couple we have coming are a member of a house sitting agency and they pay a fee to them and they advertise there services. they have also supplied references and we have contacted these people so all is well there. Regarding not wanting people going into your home just minding your property, the idea is they use your house unless they have a caravan and you have some sort of facility on your property IE toilet and shower /laundry for them to use. I think if you have nothing to be done IE dogs/cats etc to be looked after you are probably better off getting a good friend or relative to look at things why you are away.

Just my thoughts, Good Luck in making the decision.
